Mar 23, 2015 #2 MrsBrooke Songster 5 Years Aug 11, 2014 2,658 319 246 Magnolia, Texas I don't have ducks, but that certainly does look like bumblefoot. You will need to perform home-vet surgery on the boil to get the core of the infection out. There are several videos on treating bumblefoot around here. https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/236649/bumblefoot-surgery-with-pics-and-how-to (thread) (video) You can do it! MrsB
